Video Transcript for Curt Class I and II Pin and Clip Review
Speaker 1: Today we'll be having a look at the Curt Class I and II pin and clip that's 1/2" in diameter, part number F-4. If you have an 1-1/4" hitch and have any hitch-mounted accessories to go with it, whether it be for a Class I or Class II accessory, you're going to need a pin and clip to secure them to your hitch.What's great about this pin and clip is how easy it is to use. With the pistol grip design, it makes it easy for us to insert the pin or remove it when securing our accessories such as this ball mount here. Once we have the pin inserted, we can take our clip, line it up with the pin, push it in place, and that'll secure our pin and our accessory.What sets this pin and clip apart from others on the market is that we have this beveled edge right here to help guide the pin through our holes in our hitch and our accessory. So, if our holes aren't lining up perfectly, this will help push them together, making it go through nice and easily. Also, other ones on the market, the clip goes around the pin.
It doesn't go through it. I find that this is a more secure option and makes it easier to remove the clip or to install it. It'll even work great with a cargo carrier, and just like that, we're hooked to our cargo carrier. It's secured to our vehicle and we're ready to hit the road.Not only does the pin and clip work with our ball mounts and our cargo carriers like this one, but it'll also work our bike racks provided they don't have a threaded hole for an anti-rattle device, which they are kind of rare to see that but they do exist. Just as easy as it is to install, it's just as easy to remove.
We'll simply grasp our clip at the end of it, pull away from our pin, grab our pistol grip of the pin, remove it from our hitch, and then the accessory can slide out.Now for a few measurements of our pin. Our pin has an overall width at its widest points from the tip over here of 4". Our straight pin measurement from where it's straight to our hole where our clip goes through, the usable space that we have is 2-1/2". So what that means is with our 1-1/4" hitch as long as the hitch walls themselves aren't thicker than 2-1/2", we will have plenty of clearance for our pin to go through, securing our accessory to our hitch.Now, when comparing this pin and clip to others, such as the Draw-Tite, part number PC2, this one is a more affordable option and it's slightly easier to use because it has different design where the clip goes through the pin and not around it, and it also has more of a beveled edge, which makes it easier to insert the pin and the accessory in case the hole in the accessory or the hitch aren't centered properly. That completes our look at the Curt Class I and Class II pin and clip that's 1/2" diameter, part number F-4..

- Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2019 Volkswagen JettaThe available 1-1/4-inch Class I hitch options for your 2019 Jetta include the Curt round tube hitch # C11540 and the Draw-Tite model # 24978. The Curt offers easier installation but its cross tube will be visible under the bumper cover. The Draw-Tite hitch installation requires removal of the entire bumper fascia and the bumper itself but gives you a much more discrete appearance once installed. The linked photo shows the Draw-Tite hitch. Both hitches include all of the required mounting...

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Receiver Options for a Ford Focus STFor your Ford Focus ST, you will want to use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11431 which will fit the 2013-2016 model years. This is the only option we have available for the ST model at this time. If you will be doing any towing with your vehicle then you will also need a wiring harness, ball mount/hitch ball, and hitch pin/clip. For this I recommend using the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56273, Curt Class I and II Pin and Clip part # F-4, Curt Class II Drawbar...

It is very likely that the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver C11475 will fit your vehicle but the fit has not yet been confirmed. For the only confirmed fit we have for your 2018 VW Golf R model, I recommend the EcoHitch # 306-X7333. I've attached the installation instructions to help. The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56374 is also a very likely fit...
view full answer... - Parts Needed To Tow a Trailer or Haul a Cargo Carrier with a 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDIThe easiest to install trailer hitch we have for your 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11412. The reason that this trailer hitch is the easiest to install is because you don't have to take off any part of the rear bumper fascia like you would have to for the other options available for your Golf. I have attached an install photo and video for you as well. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver has a class I rating with a 1-1/4" receiver tube opening. Therefore,...

- Trailer Hitch, Wiring and Ball Mount Recommendation for 2005 Volvo XC70The hitch I recommend for your 2005 Volvo XC70 is the Curt part # C12318 that you referenced. This has the highest capacity of all of the hitches we offer for your vehicle and will install easily too. For trailer wiring the # 119147KIT is what I recommend as it has the most reliable converter box. For a ball mount you'd then want the part # C45016, pin and clip part # F-4, 2 inch ball part # 19258, or 1-7/8 # 19256.
view full answer... - Can a 2012 Ford Focus Tow a 600 lbs Total Jon Boat?According to your owners manual, your 2012 Ford Focus should never tow a trailer and is not equipped to tow. Using a trailer hitch like # C11158 is ideally to be used for accessories like a bike rack. Your vehicle has a payload rating between 935 and 1,055 lbs so if somehow you fit it inside your vehicle Ford would be okay with it. I personally would tow that trailer (but not anything larger than the jon boat) and you would be operating outside of Ford's warranty and recommendation. Based...
view full answer... - Hitch Pins for Use with Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter # C45770Hitch pins are not included with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter # C45770. The reason they aren't is that not everyone needs a hitch pin so instead of forcing people to pay extra for a part they may not need it's offered separately. For the 1-1/4 inch portion of the adapter the pin and clip you'd need is the part # F-4 and then for the 2 inch portion you'd want the part # PC3.

Then for your trailer wiring, I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118637. This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your Kia Soul's wiring harness, which is located...

I linked a photo that shows the clean appearance of the EcoHitch after installed on a Golf and the instructions to install it are included too. You do not have to...

- Ball Mount Needed with a 5 inch Rise for Use with a 2018 Volkswagen AtlasA high-low adapter like the Roadmaster Adapter # RM-076 that you referenced is designed for use with a flat towing setup, but I do have a solution for you to tow your trailer level with your 2018 Volkswagen Atlas. If the 10-1/2 inch measurement that you took of the hitch receiver on your Atlas is from the ground to the top of the inside of your 2 inch receiver, like the Curt # C13366, then you will need a ball mount that has at least a 5 inch rise as rise and drop measurements typically...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendations for a 2012 Volkswagen TiguanThere are several differences amongst the various hitch classes but the important factor is that the hitch is rated high enough for what you need it for. The hitch tongue weight and gross trailer weight capacity will need to exceed the trailer tongue weight and gross weight. Class I and II trailer hitches have 1-1/4 inch receiver openings whereas a Class III hitch will have a 2 inch receiver opening. Class I hitches usually top out at 200 pounds tongue weight capacity and 2,000 pounds...

They are both identical in Class and weight ratings and come with a 1-1/4" receiver. Please note that Class I trailer hitches are only rated to carry up to 2 bikes. The Curt warranty requires a Stabilizer Strap # 18050 for all non-supported loads, like the Yakima HoldUp # Y02443, but it doesn't have the weld stop inside...

- Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring for 2018 Hyundai Tucson Sel PlusWhen we research towing capacities we base it off of what the owner's manual says but for some unknown reason there are no online manuals available for a 2018 Hyundai Tucson. I did take a look at the Hyundai website and as you said it listed the SEL Plus as having a 2,000 lb towing capacity as opposed to the 1,500 lb capacity of the SE and SEL; however, it looks like the SEL Plus only has some interior features differentiating it from the SE and SEL so it would not make sense for the capacity...

- Can a 2015 Dodge Dart Carry a Motorcycle on a Hitch Mounted Motorcycle CarrierWith that being said I definitely recommend not carrying your Honda motorcycle with your 2015 Dodge Dart. The carrier you're looking at, part # MT70101, is rated up to 400 pounds and from my research the bike has wet weight of 357 pounds. So I understand why you think you're okay. However, you're capacity is limited by the lowest rated component, and the Curt hitch, part # C11281, is a Class I hitch that's rated up to 200 pounds of tongue weight. Furthermore, your 2015 Dodge Dart is...
view full answer... - Best Trailer Hitch for 2018 VW GolfThe best trailer hitch for your 2018 VW Golf is the Curt # C11412 because it does not require any trimming of the rear fascia on your vehicle unlike the Draw-Tite # 24925 hitch which does require it. The Curt hitch does have a more visible crosstube than the Draw-Tite but not having to cut off part of your vehicle's trim is a worthwhile trade-off. To add wiring which will give you a 4-way connector and allow you to power your trailer's lights you need Wiring Harness # 118646 unless your...

What we found when attempting to install the Draw-Tite Hitch # 24932 on an all-wheel drive HR-V is that there was too much of an issue with the panel under the HR-V blocking the hitch from installing onto the frame. The hitch that will work for your front-wheel drive '19 HR-V is the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11416 which is similar to the Draw-Tite in that it is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver...

If you do decide to tow, then you will absolutely want to go with the lightest, smallest of the trailers. For a diesel model of '17 Cruze the available trailer hitch from Curt is part # C11492, and since you mentioned 2" ball I assume you are also using the...

Because this is the same hitch without the euro ball mount, the Curt # C114242 you asked about will also fit and comes with the 2 inch ball euro style ball mount. If you also need trailer wiring, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118692. This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your Hyundai Elantra's wiring harness,...

However, the hitch from the point where it connects to the vehicle's frame rails to its lowest point measures about 10 inches. So if you measure on your vehicle from the bottom of the frame rails where it installs to the ground and subtract 10 inches you'll have a pretty close estimate. If you're going to be towing a trailer you...

- Maximum Towing Capacity of 2011 Cadillac CTS with Curt Class I Trailer Hitch ReceiverI looked at an online copy of the owner's manual for your 2011 Cadillac CTS and it states that your car can tow no more than 1,000 pounds. You should check your owner's manual to verify this. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11196 has a maximum towing capacity of 2,000 pounds however this will not increase the capacity of your Cadillac. You are limited by the lowest rated factor which in this case is the car. If you're going to use the hitch to carry anything other than a trailer...

I did grab a couple of images from the install details that I've attached. The install details are attached as well. This hitch is confirmed to fit your Lexus. If you're going to be towing you'll also need trailer wiring. The Curt Wiring Harness # C56268 will provide you with a 4-way trailer connector. This will power a trailer's running, brake,...

This Class II, 1-1/4" trailer hitch has a black powder coat finish which helps protect it from corrosion and also has a 3,500 lb towing capacity and 350 lb tongue weight capacity, though I did check the owner's manual and it states the maximum weight your Impala can tow is 1,000 lbs so that is...

- Roof Rack Options for Loading 2 Kayaks onto a 2018 Honda Civic 4drThe first thing to look at is the roof capacity of your vehicle. The combined weight of the rack, 2 kayak carriers, and a pair of 64 pound kayaks is a concern. I confirmed the roof capacity is 110 pounds on the 2018 Civic Sedan. A better option and my recommendation is carrying your 2 kayaks on a Malone XtraLight Trailer designed for 2 Wide Kayaks # MPG526G-V. If you don't already have a tow package or hitch on your Civic, it requires a tow hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver...
